News – Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1 gets a release date

SEGA has announced that the first episode of Sonic the Hedgehog 4 will be released October 13th on Xbox Live Arcade (priced at 1200 Microsoft Points) and PSN (£9.99) and 15th October on WiiWare (for 1500 Wii Points). The game will also be available on the iTunes app Store October 7th.

I’m looking forward to Sonic’s first series mainline 2D game in years, but, given its episodic nature, let’s just hope that it offers us all enough content for our money.
